The OfflineTV star talked about a potential switch again during his stream on Oct. 30. He all but confirmed his time on Twitch could be coming to an end. But this time, there was a catch\u2014he might have been joking. \"Look, let me tell you guys the truth. The truth is, I'm not going to be on Twitch for long. I'm getting the bag from another platform,\u201d he said. At face value, there\u2019s nothing too strange about it. But then Toast said something else, obviously as a joke (but delivered in a deadpan manner), that made it hard to tell whether it was really happening or if it was just tongue-in-cheek. \u201cI'm squeezing my audience [on Twitch] for all [the money] they\u2019ve got,\u201d he said. \u201cI'm doing as many sponsored streams as I can before I get the bag and move on. Alright! There, I said it!\u201d Toast continued the joke, telling fans even though he\u2019s the one pocketing all the money from his wheeling and dealing, he wants them to think of it like they\u2019re somehow winning too. He continued with the stream and didn\u2019t mention it again. Toast\u2019s dry and sarcastic humor casts some doubt on the truthfulness of his claim. However, it\u2019d be silly to rule it out completely\u2014especially considering he\u2019s spoken fondly of YouTube. Perhaps when he said he knows at least five more streamers moving from Twitch to YouTube, he was secretly one of them. It may just be the biggest plot twist in the history of streaming.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/30215220\/New-Project-55.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/720928"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2123"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=720928"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/720928\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":720990,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/720928\/revisions\/720990"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/720934"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=720928"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=720928"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=720928"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=720928"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=720928"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=720928"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=720928"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
